Finishing drive

by

 

I remember Turkoman, Retiree. He had an awesome finishing kick that could take your breath away. His Tallahassee Handicap was amazing. He was trailing the field on the turn and won it going away by five lengths. I think they figured that he ran a mile at the same clip as Dr Fager's world record. Speaking of tall horses, did you realize that both he and Forego were descendents of Man o' War's son American Flag? Maybe there is a "tall" gene in there somewhere.
